I have arrived!! GMT II Pepsi

I am now the proud owner of a A series (2000) GMT II Pepsi!! It arrived today from Dallas and from our illustrious forum member Springer!

This is the full meal deal complete with all booklets and even the original plastic protectors. Nice to have a complete package just like it came from Rolex!!

She's a beaut! More formal photos will be forthcoming. (ie. some without the dust and fingerprints)!

And as I was trying to have some foresight, Mr. Steve Mullholland provided this Coke bezel to me at his cost! As soon as I get tired of the Pepsi look, there is a Coke in the waiting. Thanks Steve!!
